Default Tpw?

Did a search and couldn't find these answers;

1) Has anyone actually been notified by the Chevy Chat line that the 3000 has been upgraded?
2) Is there a day of the week that TPW's usually are created, or is it random?

My order is with a small dealership and has been at 3000 since March or before. I am told it's their first and oldest order. I check with the chat option almost daily, but wondering if I'm wasting my time.

Unless your car is a MUSEUM DILIVERY, you won't get a TPW until your build reaches 3300 status....and considering you have a march allocation, you have a long wait. typically your build won't go to 3300 status until about a month before its actually built. with that....you will most likely have your car built sometime between late September (if you are REALLY lucky) and as late as late November.

So there is no reason for you to be calling the chat line every day.....wait till the end of August, then call about once a week at the most.

Wasting yours and their time. Like Joe said, you are behind thousands of people who don't have their TWP either. Check back in a couple months.

Yes, most likely you are wasting someone's time. I'm 3000 since February so I'm a month ahead of you in theory. You may have a TPW somewhere around the end of September.

My HTC was at 3000 status for a long time. had called Corvette concerige and they kept saying it was at 3000. Since I am doing Museum delivery, I called Shane at NCM yesterday to have him check. Called me back in an hour and said my car is at 3300 and has a TPW of August 27. Said he would probably be calling me 2-3 weeks past that to set up the NCM delivery. Really good news to me.
